To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, \VILL. E. TURNER, M. 1)., of Neosho Falls, State of Kansas, have invented a certain new Improvement in Mode of Dcnicotinizing and Deodorizing Tobacco- Smoke, of which the following is a specification:

My invention relates to a chemical preparation, compound, or mixture to be used in pipes,

pipe-stems, and cigar-holders, in any convenient mode or form, to'denicotinize' and deodorize tobacco-smoke, and thus prevent the injurious principle or ingredients of tobacco, nicotine, and empyreumatic oil'fromentering the mouth, thus preventing-many forms of discases, both direct and indirect, such as dysj pepsia, heart disease, impaired senses, impaired circulation of the blood, and disturbed intellect, and all forms of nervous disorders now consequent on the present mode of smok iiy invention consists in the use of the. chemical ingredients or compounds of' citric, tartaric, tannic, and gallic acids with cinnamon, Florida water, or clove water, and pure glycerine, in the following proportions: Of glyccrine, five parts; of the water, three parts;

be of an amount more or less to the fluid dram c of glycerine and water.

The tobacco-smoke, in passing through the compound or anything holding the compound, is divested of its empyrcumatic oil in the chemical compound, thus deodorizing it, and the nicotine is depostcd in the form of tannate, citrate, tartrate, and gallate of nicotine, according to which of the above acids are used.

Thus the denicotinizing and deodoriziug is accomplished.

I claim as my invention- The above chemical ingredients or com pound, as and for the'purpose hereinbefore WILL. n. TURNER.
